Behavioral Addictions

Compulsive non-substance behaviors can be as disabling as chemical addictions. Dysfunction in the prefrontal cortex disrupts decision-making and impulse control. Dysregulation in dopamine circuits reinforces repetitive behaviors. Neuroplasticity plays a role in both the development and recovery from behavioral addictions. Early detection prevents long-term neurological consequences. Cognitive-behavioral therapies help restore executive function and self-control.

Compulsive Behavior Focus Points:

• Executive-function disruptions
• Habitual reinforcement pathways
• Behavioral change strategies
